Yamaha WR description

Up for auction is a 2008 Yamaha WR450. Mechanically perfect, normal wear on the plastics and cases. No issues, needs nothing, ready to ride. It is street legal with all proper equipment. I have installed high quality dual sport parts from Sicass racing; LED signals front and rear, LED tail light with plate holder, rear brake light switch, horn, and handlebar switch. Kenda 760 Trakmaster DOT on the rear and a Dunlop 739 up front. Both tires have one ride on them. Clarke 3.6 gallon transparent fuel tank is mounted on the bike. Cycra full wrap hand guards and aluminum GYTR skid plate. AIS and snorkel have been removed. Throttle stop replaced with YZ stop. Dial-A-Jet fuel mixture screw mounted on carb.


Bike has been well maintained and never abused.

Included with the bike is a set of brand new blue fenders, extra white rear fender, blue headlight mask with background sticker, blue shrouds with OEM graphics, 13 tooth front sprocket (new in package), 15 tooth front sprocket, 52 tooth rear sprocket (new in package), OEM factory tank, Safari brand aftermarket 4.1 gallon tank (brand new, never had fuel in it) , new OEM seat cover, new OEM complete seat.

In the past few months I have installed a new battery, new fork seals and new water pump seals and gaskets (normal maintenance items).

I bought the bike in 2008 and swapped out the blue plastics for white (the headlight mask is painted). I rode the bike mostly in Wayne NF and in the dualsport events here in Ohio. It was trailered  to Moab twice and the Black Hills once where the bike was used as a light adventure bike. Comfortable enough  to ride all day. Lots of fun on tight trails and dirt roads. Bike performed great through the desert and in the mountains.
Bike needs nothing. It has sat in my garage collecting dust for the last few weeks. 

Local pick up only. I have no interest in crates and shipping. Can probably meet buyer someplace reasonably close to SW Ohio. Ask before you buy please.

Day 1 Dakar 2014: Barreda Draws First Blood

Mon, 06 Jan 2014

Team HRC’s Joan Barreda on the Honda CRF450 Rally, got off to a storming start in day one of the 2014 Dakar rally, clocking up the fastest time of all the 175 riders at the first time-check. The former Husqvarna rider who moved to Honda in the middle of the season inaugurated his 2014 Dakar with an acrobatic performance. The motorcycle competition was expected to be wide open, and that is indeed what the classification shows after the opening stage. It was a very early start for the Rally Dakar. The pack of riders headed off at four in the morning on a long 251 miles that took them towards the vibrant city of Rosario for the start of the 112 mile special.

Yamaha Quitting World Superbike Racing After 2011 Season

Mon, 01 Aug 2011

On the other hand, the team has struggled to find a title sponsor this season, as has Yamaha’s MotoGP team.
